This module is designed to introduce participants to the fundamentals of textural observation and interpretation in mineralised hydrothermal systems. The techniques are simple, highly effective and require no specialised equipment for their implementation. The techniques taught are also extremely practical in that they generate numerous questions concerning the mineralisation being studied and commonly provide vectors toward mineralisation for drill testing.
Prof. Paul Dirks
30-31 January 2017
This module aims to teach participants the basic skills and methodology required to review and log geological core. Emphasis will be placed on the recognition, description and acquisition of oriented data (bedding planes, faults, fractures, shear zones), and how this data relates back to field observations. No prior experience in core logging is assumed, the aim being to familiarise participants with the key requirements of core logging, and how logs should be interpreted and integrated with geological models.
